Imagination's PowerVR Rogue GPUs are shipping in mass volume with 32- and 64-bit platforms for mobile and beyond
PowerVR drivers support all mainstream 32- and 64-bit mobile operating systems running on all leading CPU architectures, including MIPS and Intel Architecture (IA)
London, UK – May 16, 2014 – Imagination Technologies (IMG.L) announces that its industry-leading PowerVR Rogue GPUs are now shipping in mass volume with a range of 32- and 64-bit platforms from multiple silicon vendors targeting a range of applications including mobile devices and tablets.
PowerVR Rogue GPU drivers are optimized to run on all leading 32- and 64-bit CPU architectures, including IA, ARM, and Imagination’s own MIPS architecture, and provide exceptionally high performance and ultra-efficient scalability. The PowerVR Rogue drivers are shipping on 64-bit platforms from multiple vendors. For example, the latest 64-bit PowerVR drivers from Imagination are shipping with the 64-bit Intel® Atom™ processor Z3480 (formerly “Merrifield”) for smartphones and tablets.
PowerVR Rogue GPU drivers address the technical requirements of next-generation 32- and 64-bit operating systems, including Linux, Windows, Android and many others while providing unmatched system stability for applications and developer tools.
Says Tony King-Smith, EVP marketing, Imagination: “Our advanced PowerVR Rogue GPUs are shipping broadly across a range of 32-and 64-bit applications. As 64-bit computing becomes more and more relevant in mobile, Imagination is leading the way and accelerating the 64-bit mobile revolution by providing a combination of high-performance, low-power PowerVR GPU IP and high-quality drivers that work with any CPU architecture, therefore offering our partners the flexibility of targeting any 64-bit or 32-bit CPU architecture or operating system.”
Imagination offers a comprehensive roadmap of high-performance, low power PowerVR GPU IP that is designed to efficiently integrate within any 32-bit or 64-bit computing environment, offering leading-edge API support, performance, power and area efficiency and superior stability that help developers create ultra-realistic, next-generation applications.
All PowerVR Rogue graphics processors, from the recently launched Series6XT and Series6XE families to the Series6 generation, are 64-bit ready GPUs and integrate a highly flexible Memory Management Unit (MMU).
Availability
The 32- and 64-bit capable Driver Development Kit (DDK) for PowerVR Rogue GPUs is available now.
